After the Watch enters power saving mode, it will automatically turn off the more power-consuming functions on the smartwatch. Some of the features that will go off includes the Always-On Display and arrhythmia. Heart rate notifications, heart rate and blood oxygen measurements, plus workout reminders will also deactivate.

In power saving mode, if the Watch detects that there is no bound iPhone nearby, it will also automatically turn off Wi-Fi and cellular network data connections, incoming calls, and application notifications. Regarding the other features of the update, Apple says

Apple Watch enters power saving mode and your iPhone is not nearby. You can open an app to request a data connection. At this time, Wi-Fi and cellular networks will be automatically turned on. Of course, this will consume a lot of power. In mode, missed calls and notifications will be received every 1 hour”.
